St Joseph’s is a successful oversubscribed Catholic college in Swindon. Our aim is to reflect the Christian values proclaimed in the Gospel by providing a caring community in which young people can grow as balanced individuals, morally, intellectually and spiritually. We want our students to leave the college with good academic qualifications. We hope they will be resilient young people who are responsible for themselves and the effects their actions have on others.

To achieve these aims we need the very best staff. People who share our vision of the potential we see in our young people and are passionate about giving them the opportunity to learn to be the best they can be.

We are seeking to appoint an enthusiastic and talented Teacher of RE for a maternity cover. The successful candidate would be expected to teach across all the ability ranges at KS3, KS4 and with the possibility of teaching KS5.

The College offers the following:

• Distinct, inclusive ethos

• Excellent behaviour and learning environment

• Many and varied opportunities for personal development

• GCSE 5 A* - C pass rate consistently above National average

• A highly regarded training, induction and support programme
